Toward Uncertainty Quantification in Modern Art

Asked to animate the same modern artwork under different random seeds, a text to video model returns visibly different films, one reading per seed. Because modern art is ambiguous by intent, this disagreement is signal, not noise. Yet prevailing uncertainty quantification (UQ) collapses a set of generations to a dispersion scalar that says how much the seeds differ but not how: it cannot tell a compact interpretation from a dominant reading plus an outlier, two competing modes, or diffuse instability, nor whether the set still contains a rendering faithful to the original. We present the first study of the structure of generative uncertainty for modern art animation, and a reusable protocol for identifying source blind multiseed uncertainty: a suite of seven source blind and six reference aware estimators; a distributional profile (robust spread, outlier influence, explicit topology, multimodality, anisotropy, leave one seed influence, reference coverage); a distribution model ablation (vMF, Kent, ACG, Student t, kernel, mixture); eight identification questions; and an artwork level statistical protocol. We build the first corpus: 250 modern artwork captions rendered by Wan2.1 14B under four seeds (1000 videos) across 4 encoders, artworks withheld from generation. As a diagnostic the protocol succeeds: it classifies seed set topology at balanced accuracy 0.98 (chance 0.25), isolates the outlier configuration at AUROC 1.00 where a scalar reaches only 0.35, and splits high uncertainty artworks into reference covering (n=97) and reference missing (n=56) diversity, reliably from three seeds and across encoders.

Improving the Safety and Trustworthiness of Medical AI via Multi-Agent Evaluation Loops

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly applied in healthcare, yet ensuring their ethical integrity and safety compliance remains a major barrier to clinical deployment. This work introduces a multi-agent refinement framework designed to enhance the safety and reliability of medical LLMs through structured, iterative alignment. Our system combines two generative models - DeepSeek R1 and Med-PaLM - with two evaluation agents, LLaMA 3.1 and Phi-4, which assess responses using the American Medical Association's (AMA) Principles of Medical Ethics and a five-tier Safety Risk Assessment (SRA-5) protocol. We evaluate performance across 900 clinically diverse queries spanning nine ethical domains, measuring convergence efficiency, ethical violation reduction, and domain-specific risk behavior. Results demonstrate that DeepSeek R1 achieves faster convergence (mean 2.34 vs. 2.67 iterations), while Med-PaLM shows superior handling of privacy-sensitive scenarios. The iterative multi-agent loop achieved an 89% reduction in ethical violations and a 92% risk downgrade rate, underscoring the effectiveness of our approach. This study presents a scalable, regulator-aligned, and cost-efficient paradigm for governing medical AI safety.
